<Title>Spring 2024 Multicultural Leadership Experience (MLE)</Title>

    <p><strong>The Multicultural Leadership Experience (MLE) is a collaboration between Campus Life and Initiatives for Identity Inclusion &amp; Belonging (i3B), that seeks to: </strong></p>
    <p><strong>Engage participants in a multicultural development and leadership learning program; <br>Enhance participants' understanding of their social identities, leader identity, as well as their capacity to lead; <br>And enable participants' development through authenticity, self-awareness, relationships, and capitalizing on difference. </strong></p>
    <div><strong><br></strong></div>
    <div><span><div>The sessions are as follows:<div> </div>

    <div><br></div>
    <div>
    <div>Participants will be exploring the concept of Authentic Leadership, Legacy Building, and Breaking Barriers of White Supremacy within Leadership. We will do this in a leadership learning cohort by: </div>
    <ul>
    <li>Enhancing participants' leader identity and leadership capacity using an identity-conscious lens and student development theories;</li>
    <li>Increasing participants' awareness of their personal abilities, identity development, and intersections that shape their story through authenticity, self-reflection, and cultural humility;</li>
    <li>Exploring the role they play in developing relationships while building intra/intercultural connections; </li>
    <li>And capitalizing on their differences, specifically in relation to their racial, ethnic, national, and other salient identity social groups</li>
    </ul>
    <div> </div>
    <div>The purpose of all MLE programs is to provide a space for students and student leaders who identify within diverse or marginalized backgrounds to discover their own capacity to lead, while also promoting a better understanding of their experiences, issues, strengths, and outcomes in navigating their own collegiate careers. However, ALL students are welcome to apply!   </div>

<Title>Reduced Cost Dental Cleanings Available</Title>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">
    <p><span>Hello!</span></p>
    <p><span>I'm an alumni currently studying dental hygiene at CCBC Dundalk, in search of patients for dental cleanings. This is a great opportunity especially if you haven't had a cleaning in a while and have no dental insurance!</span></p>
    <p><span>My availabilities are Tuesday 8AM and Thursday 1PM. These services come with a fee, starting at $20 for adults, $10 for children &amp; seniors. </span></p>
    <p><span>Everyone is welcome! Please email me if interested: <a href="mailto:jdanh1027@gmail.com" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">jdanh1027@gmail.com</a></span></p>
    <p>---------------------</p>
    <p><span>Things to note: One appointment session will be at maximum 3hrs long and will require more than one session to finish. This is due to the nature of it being conducted in an educational setting. </span><span>Appointments are supervised and checked by Registered Dental Hygienists and Dentist.</span></p>
    <p><span>So if you're available, please help a dental hygiene student out!</span></p>
    <p><span>Share this to anyone who might benefit from this!</span></p>
    <p><span>Thank you,</span></p>
    <p><span>I look forward to working with you</span></p>
